Liver and Bile Duct Cancer

Why Choose Sutter?

Our doctors excel at treating liver and bile duct cancers with advanced surgical procedures and specialized therapies. We're among the first centers in Northern and Central California to offer hepatic artery infusion (HAI) pump therapy and histotripsy alongside liver transplant options. We tailor your treatment based on the tumor's size and location, and your underlying liver function.

When you turn to Sutter for your cancer care, rest assured you're in skilled hands. Becker's Hospital Review named Sutter Health among the nation's top Cancer Programs of Excellence. Our cancer centers have also earned accreditation from the American College of Surgeons for providing comprehensive cancer care, from surgery to support groups. 

Transplant Oncology Program

For many people with liver-related cancers, surgery or chemotherapy alone may not be enough. Our transplant oncology program brings together leading specialists in liver disease, cancer and transplant medicine to offer innovative treatment options.

We treat liver cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma (bile duct cancer), and colorectal or neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to the liver. Treatment may include hepatic artery infusion (HAI) pump therapy, histotripsy, chemotherapy and liver transplantation. Each plan is reviewed by a multidisciplinary tumor board and tailored to your needs. In some cases, you may qualify for clinical trials and new therapies not widely accessible in our region.

If you or a loved one is facing liver cancer, ask for a referral to our transplant oncology program to explore advanced treatment options.
